This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

This review discusses androgen manipulation strategies for conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostatic carcinoma but reports no new clinical results.

Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.

This study found that androgen binding in male rat livers involves specific androgen receptors, which decrease with castration and are inducible in female livers with testosterone.

This review discusses cross-sex hormone therapy for managing gender dysphoria in transsexual individuals and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the need for education and culturally sensitive training for healthcare professionals.

This study reports that new compounds with anti-androgenic effects were found to counteract testosterone in animals without significant estrogenic activity, indicating potential for managing androgen-related conditions.

This study found that methotrexate treatment for 15 days suppressed tuberculin hypersensitivity in Strain 2 guinea pigs without causing lymphopenic or anti-inflammatory effects.

This article describes a case of oral pigmentation that posed a diagnostic challenge in determining Addison’s disease and includes a brief review, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, testosterone and certain metabolites were highly effective in promoting sebaceous structure growth in the female hamster flank organ, while others had limited or no effect.

This article discusses the minimal research on hair growth physiology and highlights Dr. Masumi Inaba's contributions to understanding androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new experimental results.

This study suggests that in rat skin, testosterone itself may play a more significant role in androgen action than 5α-dihydrotestosterone, unlike in the prostate where 5α-DHT is more dominant.

Finasteride helps induce ovulation in nonresponder PCOS women.

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

This review suggests that GABAergic neuroactive steroids modulated by alcohol could play a role in vulnerability to alcohol use disorders, providing a rationale for further therapeutic exploration.

Thyroid disease can cause hair loss and treating thyroid problems might help with hair disorders.

This study found that women with PCOS displayed significantly higher activity of 5alpha-reductase, suggesting an additional role for liver and peripheral tissues in their androgen excess.

This study found that women with PCOS have higher activity of the enzyme 5alpha-reductase, which may contribute to their elevated androgen levels.

This study aims to evaluate whether a subset of patients experience undetected hypothyroidism, termed the "famine response," during rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery, which may impact weight loss outcomes. Results are not reported in this abstract.

This case study details the successful use of metyrapone to manage severe Cushing’s disease symptoms and stabilize a patient’s biochemical parameters before she underwent pituitary surgery.

This review discusses the brain-skin connection, the skin's role in stress response, and highlights unmet challenges in understanding stress-induced skin inflammation but reports no new experimental findings.

This review discusses recent strategies targeting the neuroactive steroid biosynthetic pathway to enhance neurosteroidogenesis, highlighting their potential benefits for neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, but reports no new clinical findings.

Gene therapy shows promise for enhancing physical traits but faces ethical, safety, and regulatory challenges.

This article reviews the potential of combining antiandrogenic and antiestrogenic treatments for BPH, highlighting aromatase inhibitors, but presents no new clinical results; further research is needed.

Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.

This case report describes a 65-year-old woman with childhood-onset growth hormone deficiency who developed panhypopituitarism, including late-onset secondary hypoadrenocorticism, affecting her respiratory and renal function.

The study observed that Friesian heifers experienced significant adaptation challenges to Kenya's equatorial conditions, taking around 18 months for their coat composition to resemble that of Dutch heifers in summer.

This paper presents a case study of a 21-year-old male with thyroid hemiagenesis, where the left thyroid lobe and isthmus are absent, and discusses the anomaly's potential clinical consequences based on existing literature.

Hair loss improved after removing pituitary tumor.

This case report identifies a 32-year-old woman with undiagnosed PHPT-1a who exhibited complete pseudo-anodontia and persistent patchy alopecia areata, suggesting these may be new nonclassical features of a GNAS pathogenic variant.
